The Fiji water girl accidentally photobombing celebrities.

The 2019 Golden Globes ceremony was, yet again, highly attended and anticipated. The significance and honor of winning a Golden Globe is sought after by many but achieved by few. The  winners may have been the real stars of the show, but the Fiji water girl accidentally stole some of the limelight.

The Fiji water girl, Kelleth Cuberth, is an up and coming model. She was hired to represent Fiji water at the 2019 Golden Globes. Cuberth was busy on the red carpet all night handing out water bottles to the celebrities to promote the brand. The model was instantly trending on social media due to her accidental photobombing of many celebrities photos.

Many of the celebrities are displeased and showing their disapproval for the photobombs. A notable celebrity that shared their opinion was Jamie Lee Curtis. Curtis posted on Instagram after the ceremony to share out her opinion on the viral images. Curtis explained in her caption that she had purposely moved away from the products because she did not want to promote any brands at the Golden Globes. Curtis was very unhappy with Cuberth getting in the back of her pictures, saying that “The sponsors of events need to get permission from people when they get them to take their picture next to products.”

Cuberth was amused by the entire event. She has not commented on the responses of celebrities, but has an overall positive attitude about it. The model said that she didn’t realize that she was in almost every photo. She knew there was a chance of being in many photos so she knew to keep a “good face” so that the pictures were still pleasant. One of Cuberth’s favorite photobombs of the night was the picture with Jim Carrey. She shared that “I love his work. I grew up watching his movies and thought it was a funny thing to find myself in the background of.”

The Golden Globes were a success overall. There was not one single show or movie that beat all the others out for awards. The variety of winners and those celebrated was very great.
